Hi!
From what I figure, the preamp alone should do just fine in powering the mics.
The A3 is actually nothing more than a battery box, unless U need the attenuation
and bass roll off features on it. The preamp U mentioned on here, doesn't seem
to work like a preamp, but rather like a battery box as well..
What kind of concert are you going to? Depending on the loudness and the type
of OKMs U have, U might have to go into mic-in instead of line-in.

hi
thanks for your mail.
i must rec a concert of the cure, and my okm is this OKM II solo "Klassik" Mikrofon (http://cgi.ebay.de/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=7532785144&sspagename=ADME:B:AAQ:DE:1)
some tips?
thanks in advance.

With the Cure, you shld have to go line-in. Normally, I wouldn't recommend the Klassiks
for loud concerts, but I've seen people pull it off.
PLug the okms to ur battery box, and the battery box to line-in of D7, and U shld be set
to go. I hope U know with the OKMs, that the best application of them is to stick them
into ur ears :P

Do not forget to set the D7 accordingly (line in, manual gain...).
Experiment at home with your loud stereo (or use headphones to feed the mics).
Check the levels during a support act? (if at all)
Adjust and leave alone.
